Biography

Master Vile

The father of Rita Repulsa and Rito Revolto, Master Vile arrived on the moon in search of the legendary Zeo Crystal. Lord Zedd mocked Vile, however, since the Zeo Crystal, kept hidden in the Caves of Deception underneath the Palace, was protected by a forcefield who would destroy anyone who possessed even an ounce of evil. Vile knew of this, of course, and created the Blue Globbor. Vile planned for Globbor to drain Ninjor of his powers, then use those powers to kidnap the Rangers, who he would then force to fetch the Zeo Crystal for him. Tommy, however, managed to steal the Zeo Crystal while the others battled Globbor on Earth. Unfortunately, Vile captured all of the Zords as well as the Crystal, and teleported them to his homeplanet in the M51 Galaxy. Invading the Youth Center, Vile threw a End Of The World Party, and he began to remotely use the Zeo Crystal's power to destroy Angel Grove. The Rangers teleported to their Zords and managed to break Vile's link to the Crystal, returning to Earth to battle Globbor. Vile soon grew to giant size to assist his creation, but was assaulted by the finishing attacks of both the Shogun and Ninja MegaFalconZords. Amazingly, he survived, and retreated back to the moon. He considered this failure to be nothing but a minor setback, and declared that he was here to stay.

Vile later sent his old ally Dischordia to battle the Rangers, and she nearly succeeded in taking control of the Rangers' minds. Vile was foiled once again, however, as Dischordia met her end courtesy of the Shogun UltraZord. Vile then summoned the Orb of Doom to the Earth, which he used to revert the Rangers to powerless children. When Zedd, Rita, Goldar, and Rito grew and began to attack Angel Grove, he shrunk them back to normal size, revealing that he had more plans for the Earth. Summoning an army of monsters to the Palace, he then sent the best of the lot to Earth, led by his field general, Professor Longnose. When the invasion was defeated by the Aquitian Rangers, Vile threw a tantrum and fled back to the M51 Galaxy, where he said evil always wins. When the Machine Empire arrived on the moon, Rita called Vile and begged him to let them stay with him. Reluctantly, Vile agreed, despite the fact that Rita would be bringing "that husband of hers."

However, Master Vile prevents Lord Zedd, Rita, Goldar, and Rito from destroying Angel Grove as he has more plans for the Earth. He sends a selection of monsters to invade the planet led by his field general Professor Longnose with the goal of conquering and destroying it. When the invasion is defeated by the Aquitian Rangers, Vile flees back to his galaxy in disgrace.

When the Machine Empire arrived on the moon, Rita calls her father and begs him to let them stay with him. Vile agrees despite the fact that Rita will be bringing Lord Zedd while also mentioning that the Machine Empire is worse than him by destroying everything in sight. Master Vile states that he will leave a skeleton key under the mat and tells them not to wake him when they arrive.

Overview

Personality and attributes

Although he had genuine care for his children, Master Vile had his disdain for Rita's husband, Lord Zedd, and the latter shared his own resentment for the former, which placed them at odds with one another. Regardless, their hostilities were more than once cast aside when attempting to defeat the Rangers and conquer the earth, as well as assisting with Rita and Zedd's escape from the attacking Machine Empire.

Despite his brand of darkness and the successes that came with it, Master Vile openly stated that his evil ways pale in comparison to King Mondo and Queen Machina, noting how the two invoke even greater destruction than himself. Given that he has taken part in the celebratory meeting with the United Alliance of Evil and the festivities for Zordon's capture, it is more than likely that like all other villains (including his daughter and son-in-law), Master Vile may have feared the alliance leader Dark Specter.

Powers and abilities

He had the ability to spit out an egg from his mouth to create monsters as seen when he created the Blue Globbor.

Vile could summon red and blue snakes from under him to teleport to any location he wishes.

Master Vile could make himself grow at will without the aid of Rita and Zedd as seen when he grew himself after the escape of Ninjor.
